The yellow storm in the NBA

The most basic skill of an excellent point guard should be to control the team's rhythm, sorting out the offense and directing teammates' movements, which is secondary.

Miller was able to integrate into the team so quickly. Firstly, because of his high basketball IQ, he roughly understood the team's common routines in the shortest time. Secondly, because of his rich game experience, he was able to give advice based on the actual situation on the court.

Come up with the most appropriate response. Finally, several other Rockets players have a high degree of tacit understanding, which can help him integrate faster.

At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets led the Hornets by 6 points, 29:23, and Miller performed very well. He sent 4 assists in this quarter, which effectively activated the Rockets' offense.

"Miller played really well in this quarter. It seemed as if he had been running in with the Rockets for a long time. He didn't feel jerky at all. The Rockets performed very smoothly and reassuringly under his control, and the offense was smoother than before.

."

"Yes, this is what an excellent No. 1 position can bring to the team. Now that the Rockets have Miller at the No. 1 position, they don't have to worry about it anymore. If the Rockets had traded Miller two years earlier,

Maybe they already have a championship!"

"What you said is a bit exaggerated, Charles. You have offended all the previous Rockets No. 1 players. Besides, it's not too late for the Rockets to trade him. The Rockets really look promising to break through this season."

west."

"Do you think I'm afraid of offending people? Besides, what I said is the truth. Look at who the Rockets were at the first position before? Bob Sura? Lucas III? Just Alston, who can barely see through it.

, but I don’t even bother to complain about his defensive ability.

So I say if the Rockets had solved the problem of the No. 1 position two years earlier, they would have really had hope of winning the championship."

"Okay! Charles, you won, I was convinced by you!" Smith expressed his resignation helplessly.

During the t.n.t commentary team's banter, the second quarter of the game started quickly. The Rockets sent out a lineup of Brooks, Hyde, Quan Xiao, Landry and Hayes. This lineup lacked height and was played as a center.

Hayes is less than two meters tall, and Landry and Quan Xiao are the two tallest players on the Rockets.

But there is still no problem with the Hornets' rotation.

In other words, as long as Quan Xiao is there, he can fight against the rotation of any team in the league.

After playing for four minutes, Quan Xiao and Hayes were replaced by Wells and Yao Ming and took a rest. Yao Ming was replaced by Hayes in the eighth minute of the first quarter, and now he has been brought back to rest.

The Hornets have already replaced their entire starting lineup, because they are already 12 points behind. If they don't get back to the starting lineup, the point difference will be more than 15 points.

In the eighth minute, Miller came on the field to replace Brooks. In these minutes, Paul had beaten Brooks to the point of shutting himself down. The two were about the same size, but the difference in strength was too great. Brooks was just a rookie, and he was at his peak.

This season is almost the same as Pao Luo in his rookie season, so how can he be the opponent of Pao Luo today.

Miller's appearance allowed the Rockets to stop their decline. In the remaining minutes, the two teams went back and forth and played very lively. The Hornets' West also bombed the Rockets' basket with the assist of Pao Luo.

, but Landry also cooperated with Miller to fight back against the Hornets.

At halftime, the Rockets led 56:47 by 9 points. Quan Xiao made 9 of 12 shots and contributed 24 points. Yao Ming contributed 10 points on 5 of 8 shots. Miller had 8 points and 7 assists.

"Quan Xiao scored 24 points at halftime, and maybe he can score 40+ points again today. He currently averages 32.6 points per game, ranking first in the scoring list. A rookie ranks first in the scoring list. This is

This is very rare in the history of the league. I wonder if this will stimulate some other guys to start scoring points in the second half of the season."

"In the history of the league, only Wilt Chamberlain won the scoring title in his rookie season. Others, not even Michael, did it. Michael only won the scoring title in his second season.

If Quan can win the scoring title at the end of the season, he will become the second player in history to win the scoring title in his rookie season!"

"I think this is very likely to become a fact. At present, Quan Xiao has become the same core as Yao Ming in the Rockets. Their shots are almost 20 times, but Quan Xiao is more efficient, and he also has three-pointers.

So the score is higher than Yao."

"And Miller's arrival made him

He doesn't have to worry about organizational matters, which will make him more efficient, and maybe his scoring can increase a little more in the second half of the season!"

"Charles, aren't you worried that Quan Xiao will hit the wall?" Kenny Smith asked curiously, but Buckley's tone was too sure.

"I'm not worried! I have studied his playing style and found that he is a very mature and stable player, and he is very smart and has a very high basketball IQ.

He is always able to make the most correct choices and has almost no common problems with ordinary rookie players. His ball possession rate is not low, but how many turnovers does he make? He averages only 1.5 times per game! Can you believe this?

?”

"Oh? If you don't tell me, I really haven't noticed this problem. It seems that Quan Xiao is indeed a player with a super high basketball IQ. After all, he can control the number of turnovers so low even with so much possession of the ball.

, I have to say I admire you!"

At the beginning of the second half, the Rockets exploded. Yao Ming scored 10 points on 5-for-5 shooting in just five minutes. Quan Xiao also scored two three-pointers. The Hornets were blindsided and had to call a timeout.

However, the timeout had no effect. Although the Hornets' offense improved after adjusting, the defensive end was still unable to limit the performance of the Rockets, especially Yao Ming. In the remaining minutes, Yao Ming continued his fiery touch, once again

Scored 8 points with 100% shooting.

After three quarters, the Rockets' lead reached 18 points, and Quan Xiao's score also rose to 33 points. If the Hornets don't give up in the fourth quarter, he really has a chance to score 40 points.

As expected, the Hornets were still thinking about giving it a try in the fourth quarter, but they just took down Peja Stojakovic, who was having a bad day. Seeing this, Adelman did not take it lightly and put Quan Xiao on the court to suppress the attack.

Yao Ming, let him rest first, he can play at any time if the situation is not right.

But the Hornets only lasted 5 minutes, and they gave up after 5 minutes. Quan Xiao was also replaced by Adelman, and his final score was fixed at 39 points.

In the end, the Rockets defeated the Hornets 113:96 at home! Miller performed well in this game. In 31 minutes of playing time, he contributed a double-double of 16 points and 12 assists, adding to his Rockets debut.

A heavy stroke.
